While NIP processing has changed a bit since OS/360, there always has been a LINK to IEEVIPL. We've hijacked that to initialize local security (pre-RACF) and accounting code, ensure correct volume attributes (for packs not in VATLST), and other shenanigans. Perhaps IBM could be persuaded to add a formal link (or ATTACH) to a user exit - at this point most services are available.
